- Songwriters: Jack Johnson
A billion people died on the news tonight
But not so many cried at the terrible sight
Well, Momma said, ‽It's just make believe
You can't believe everything you see
So baby, close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonightâ€
Who's the one to decide that it would be all right
To put the music behind the news tonight
Well, Momma said, ‽You can't believe everything ya hear
The diagetic world is so unclear
So baby, close your ears
On the news tonight, on the news tonight
The unobtrusive tones, on the news tonightâ€
And Momma said, ‽Mmm
Why don't the news casters cry
When they read about people who die?
At least they could be decent enough
To put just a tear in their eyesâ€
Momma said, ‽It's just make believe
You can't believe everything ya see
So baby, close your eyes to the lullabies
On the news tonightâ€
